Something Fishy

Chance is always powerful. Let your hook always be cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be fish.

Ovid

What a surprise to see our little canal teeming with fish this afternoon. I don't know what type of fish they are but they are pretty smart because as soon as a school caught sight of me, standing high above, the group would dive out of sight. A shadow of a crow flying overhead caused the same reaction. I don't know why I haven't seen them before. Maybe I wasn't looking in the right places, or maybe they are just passing through. They had better get to wherever they're going fast because the water level is lowering.
